This is actually a 3-way negotiation between the league (30 teams), league (on behalf of 1 potential team) and PA.

IMO the PA would probably be in favour of those 13 players' NMCs being exempt, as it means protection for 13 other players.

San Jose should throw a fit of JT and PM need protection. The other thing it would do is demolish the value of any of those players at the deadline (or sooner).
